I sort of touched on it with the everything wrong with the WWE in 2018 thread. They've gone full circle promoting and pushing the "Total Divas" instead of the actual workers and women the fans support. The biggest problem is, they treat booking/storylines differently between the men and women.

I remember there was an interview with Game of Thrones creator George R.R. Martin asking how he was able to write such strong female characters in his stories. His response was pretty much something like, I just write women characters like they're normal people. The WWE can't fukking figure that out.

That thread needs to be stickied for the rest of the year. It was like TSC's version of What's Going On. :mjcry:

But what George said was real. WWE could learn a thing or two from other forms of media.

They're here in Toronto next week too so her pop is going to be insane, I'm sure.

But will also give the commentators (via Vince/Road Dogg) the chance to have them say they are in bizarro world, where the bad guys are usually cheered, yada yada, like they always do when they are here.

WWE's booking is the epitome of:

Like we as legit wrestling heads know that Becky is over, but the WWE wants to take the focus off of that in favor of Charlotte:stopitslime:. It's retarded to let her play this heel role, when in reality that it's like saying "I'm a bad parent yet I bought my kids clothes, put food on the table, and make sure I spend time with them". Like WTF:mindblown:? They have social media accounts and don't read the fanbase opinions on wrestlers:rudy:. It reminds me of the poll they had a few days ago about what wrestler they want to return for Evolution. The fans pick AJ Lee and I'm more pissed that they put her down as a option because they already know they want her to be at the event:mindblown:. Hell, Impact embrace the internet that they actually celebrated August 1st warning. Why can't a billion dollar company understand that their fanbase will continue to dictate the direction of the wrestlers? You want them dikkheads to stop counting down iron man match timers and booing Reigns....maybe do something about the product and stop directing the fans on who to support and etc:ld:

When it comes to the Woman's division the 'E's booking is just atrocious.

They have a roster of woman that if given the right booking could rival what TNA did with the Knockouts. Hell they could even surpass them.

But their love affair for blonde brats and made up t*ts is killing the division. :smh:

If fans play along and boo her so she’s the top female heel, then when they do horsewomen vs horsewomen, her face turn will have all the spotlight. Think.

So it looks like WWE has edited out the entire part where Becky goes at the fans, in her promo yesterday. Either A/V team are Becky supporters, or maybe Vince/Dogg are second guessing the decision.

"Why is that? Is it because I'm not blonde enough? Is that it? Is it because I don't have enough enhancements? Is that it? I'm treated like the red-headed stepchild of the entire Women's Division. Yet I have proved time and time again that I am the moneymaker -- that I am the person that people will tune in to see that they will care about -- that they want to see me win. Yet it's being stolen from me every single time."
